Department of Statistics, University of Oxford. One or possibly two postdoctoral positions of up to three years duration are available to work on statistical methodology for the analysis of high-dimensional data arising from modern experimental technologies in genetics, with the aim of identifying and characterizing biomarkers (signatures) of human disease risk. The project is part of a multi- national EU programme investigating genomic epidemiology; exploring the potential of combining information from multiple genomic platforms, including, transcriptomics, proteomics and metabonomics. The emphasis of the project is on metabolic diseases such as diabetes. The post(s) provide a unique opportunity to develop key statistical methodology in parallel with the EU partners developing the next generation of experimental techniques. Closing Date for applications April 21, 2005. Further details at: http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/jobs/HapMap.html
